Chronicle
of Love is the first Israeli feature film to deal with
the subject of battered women. Portraying the lives of women struggling
with the cycle of domestic violence, director Tzipi Trope explores the
tragic, horrifying consequences of physical and emotional abuse.

When
Nava, a social worker, shares the painful secret of her suffering with
Jania, another woman victimized by her husband, the two form a healing
bond. With the help of Nava's best friend Amit, the women attempt to escape
their respective situations. The story's resolution is deeply troubling
and unsparing in its emotional intensity.

QUOTES

“Chronicle
of Love
is being screened at the height of Israel's jubilee celebrations: celebrations
which conceal a deep pain, the pain of the terrible violence in which
we live, violence whose source has more than once been in love - of land,
of God, of lofty ideals, of power, of woman. I chose to tell the stories
of women, women who are beaten and murdered in the name of love. As a
woman, I wanted to examine the destructive force of love." - Tzipi Trope,
filmmaker
